att 2 wire is a Adsl Modem (Requires a telephone line jack to get the signals) but charter communication is a cable internet service (not DSL) , Requires a TV cable service for internet .These two jacks differs and there working differs ..Means : Att works with the username and password type of authentication but charter requires the MAC address of modem for authentication . Therefore for a cable internet 2wire 2701hg-b modem cant be used . But yes in case charters has username and password authentication and works with the telephone jack in house then its possible to use the same modem.

If you want to turn off dhcp for 2wire then connect the two wire to a computer and use :192.168.1.254 .But if you are doing in for netgear then yes you can use :192.168.0.1 with the user name as admin password as password

*** it will work only if you have never customized the router admin password . else do a hard reset of router (pin hole in the back - press and hold 20 secs )and the router will be in factory default mode ..

All you need is wireless network name which is usually name of the router brand or default unless some one has put on encryption in that case you need both. If you cant find out what info you need just reset router to factory settings by pressing reset button for 20-30 seconds and this will erase all the info saved in the router settings and bring it to defaults.

You will have to login to your modem's configuration panel. To access this, you will have to use a computer which is connected to the router via an Ethernet (CAT5) cable. Once you are at such a computer, go to Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt (Or just go to Start>Run, type in: cmdthen press OK).

After Command Prompt loads, type in: ipconfigNow press the ENTER key on your keyboard to execute the command. A list should be returned. You will want to locate the IP address associated with the, "Default Gateway." This is demonstrated in the screenshot located here.

Afterward open up your Internet browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc...) and type the IP address associated with the default gateway into the address bar. In the case of our previous example, you would type, "192.168.1.254" into the address bar (without the quotes and without adding www. or .com). Then press enter to visit the page. Your modem's configuration page should appear. You will want to click the link reading, "Run System Setup Wizard."

Afterward you might be asked to provide a password. If you don't have or know your password, try the default of blank. If that doesn't work you will have to call AT&T technical support for assistance in resetting the password.

Once you have reached the setup wizard you should be able to configure the modem to include the new registration information.

Try going to http://Helpme.att.net your support site or try calling your Internet provided and asked them to create a new username and password for your wireless connection.

If your asking for the username and password that you set in the modem configuration page more likely you are going to reset it and call your Internet service provider for the default username and password for your 2wire modem configuration page.
